Okay I am not one to toot my own horn, but I had my first sale in my online shop! I could not believe it! Now you have to understand that I have sold things before, but this was different because this was something I made with my own hands! I am currently a rep for TopLine Creations and Cello In A Box, and anytime I have had sales with them it is exciting also. But this was different. I have been going back and forth with the idea of doing greeting cards for a couple of years now and so I finally took a leap and set up shop. I have not been able to devote as much time to it as much as I would like, but I have to say that I am quite proud of the items I have listed. But I really wasn't expecting much, most people have never even heard of etsy! So to see that I actually had a sale was probably the most exciting experience I have had in a long time. Something that I made with my own hands some one thought was good to spend there money on.
But this got me thinking...
I wondered how many company's still get excited over their sales? I mean almost each and every sale... do they still take the time to personally thank each customer for their business? I hope that I never become so big that I forget this feeling, one of complete gratitude. So to my first customer , thank you.
Here is a picture of the card that was bought! I have to say it was one of my favorites. When I put the package in the mail, it was a weird feeling, like I was mailing a little part of myself away.
Oh well I guess that is something I will get used to. If you have some spare time take a look around Etsy... http://www.etsy.com and make sure to visit my shop http://www.kieshaskrafts.etsy.com . I am sure that you will find something that you will like ( well almost sure) :)
